Chapter 105 Fishing Boats (Thanks for the 4000-word chapter)

Chapter 105 Fishing Boat

At five o'clock in the morning, it was still dark, and the lights were gradually lit up on the small town pier at the tip of the peninsula, and there were stars and fishing fires from afar.

On the side of the uneven road, someone had already set up a seafood stall and shouted loudly: "Fresh catches, pomfrets that just arrived on the shore, as well as flower fish, and mackerel."

Walk a little further, you can see the whole ship and vehicle transaction under the 100-watt yellow light. Once the price is negotiated, there will be tricycles, tractors, pickups and trucks that will pull the fish away regardless of the species or size of the fish.

A boat of fish can often get more than 200 yuan in income, and then divided equally by three or four people. If the boat belongs to it, you can still have such a high income in the next three days. If you buy it together, you can only be forced to rest and wait for your own round.

When the year is good, fishermen with fishing boats can earn 200,000 yuan a year, equivalent to the income of 2,000 middle-level cadres in the country. Even in the black market, they can exchange 30,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to the income of the American middle class.

This is the golden age of Chinese fishermen, but it belongs to wealthy fishermen, and the short time has ended before many people can experience it.

Fishermen who have not risen to the first pot of gold may lose the opportunity to get gold in their entire lives.

"Woo--"

The long whistle sound means that a new ship has entered the port.

Lao Tie, who collected the fish, jumped onto the roof of the car, took a closer look, and was surprised to find that it was actually a brand new big ship. In terms of size, it was at least two or three hundred tons offshore fishing boats, which were essentially different from coastal fishing boats weighing dozens of tons.

A man with a horse-faced face who had just unloaded the catch lit a filter cigarette, took a deep breath, and said, "I don't know who's family has become rich again. Such a big boat can go to South Korea to catch fish."

"What are you doing when you run so far? Fishing at your doorstep is both fuel-efficient and fast. I'll go back and forth, and it's still on the road." The fisherman in the same boat with him was wearing a hood and leaning obliquely against the boat gang.

The horse-faced man vomited a circle and said, "Our boat is 15 tons full. The boat can fly more than 100 tons, four days on the road, three days on the road, seven days in total. We fish for one day on the road, two days in total, three days in total, only 20% of the other."

The fisherman with the head hood snorted and said, "You want to buy a big boat. Can you afford it?"

After I saved up a few more years, I sold the old ship and bought a large ship together with others.

"At that time, all the fish in the nearshore areas have been eaten, and you can only go to South Korea." The fishermen wearing hooded scent was full of sourness. They were all bought by more than a dozen people in partnership, so those with more money will naturally earn more.

There are not many fishermen who also look at the big boats and say sarcastic words. Everyone knows the benefits of big boats, but for ordinary fishermen, even if a village gathers together, they may not be able to afford it.

Lao Tie smiled and jumped off the roof of the car, shook his long legs and headed straight for the big ship. The fish in the far sea were bigger and better, and naturally the selling price was higher. The fish collectors all liked to buy big ships.

However, when I arrived in front of me, Lao Tie saw that there were no fish on the deck of the boat. A group of people were watching and reading: "A boss recruiting a boat, with a monthly salary of 100 yuan. A boatman with a monthly salary of 40 yuan. A ground service, with a monthly salary of 30 yuan..."

"It's really a lot. But why are there anyone recruiting the boss?" Lao Tie turned his head for a moment, and then he shouted to the top unwillingly: "Brother, are there any fish?"

In the shadow of the rear deck, a strong man walked out, his face darkly could not be seen clearly, and said heavily: "New ship, nowhere to be out of the sea."

Only then did Lao Tie notice that the side walls of the ship were clean and had no color at all.

The fishmongers dispersed with a "oh" sound, but the fishermen heard the news and ran over to see it in groups of three or five.

The man on the boat was also not vague, and he took four people in a short while.

Lao Tie's heart moved, he jumped up on the edge of the boat, handed a cigarette, and smiled and said, "Brother, where did you come from?"

"The shipping company under Jinan Power Machine Factory." The strong man handed over a business card.

Lao Tie was stupid and asked: "State-owned enterprise?"

The man said "yes".

The four fishermen on the boat were immediately happy and said happily: "Then are we recruited?"

"What are you thinking? You are just temporary workers now. You have done it well. Let's talk about recruiting jobs." Lao Wu's face was pitch black and he thought to himself: I still have a rural household registration.

The fishermen were a little disappointed, but they became excited in a flash and asked, "Does they guarantee 40 yuan a month?"

Fishermen are farmers at sea, and they are still limited by their agricultural household registration. Although the income during the fish news period is good, they still cannot compare to workers on average every year. Every day, they go in the wind and rain, let alone hard work.

If a fisherman does not have a boat, it will be difficult for an average of 20 yuan in a month. Only by investing in a stock and buying a boat can it be slightly better, but most of the income will be used to fill the holes in the past.

Lao Wu kept in mind Su Cheng's words and patted his majestic chest muscles and said, "It's okay to spend 40 yuan a month, but we have a living every month. In addition, there are bonuses for doing it well. The specific amount depends on what you do."

"We are not afraid of working." Several fishermen nodded.

Lao Tie hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother, your shipping company is also fishing?"

"Of course." Lao Wu handed out a cigarette and said, "In a few days, we will have a big ship coming and form a fleet to fish in the future."

"Then do you sell your fish?"

"Sell of course."

Lao Tie looked down happily. Seeing that other fish collectors were not there, he hurriedly said, "I have the largest number of fishmongers in our town. Just call me Lao Tie. I can pack your fish in the whole boat..."

"Okay, I'll give it to you the next boat." After Lao Wu said that, he said to the other four fishermen: "Do you know the boss of the boat? You must be able to control the rudder and recognize the way, and know how to fish. You can still get a commission of 100 a month."

The last sentence made the fishermen excited and immediately asked, "How to smoke?"

"2% of the selling price is given to the ship boss."

The four of them took a deep breath and ran outside without saying a word.

Who doesn’t have a familiar ship boss? This is the time to sell well.

Lao Tie looked at Lao Wu with admiration and said, "Brother is capable?"

Lao Wu smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

"In our town, the one who speaks is the boss of the ship. If you are a foreigner, you can control the boss of the ship, you will have a tenacious position."

Lao Wu then just laughed and didn't say anything.

The fishing company quickly started to open.

When the first ship took 6 days and brought more than 100 tons of mackerel and shrimp to the shore, the town was sensational. At this time, even the stupidest people knew how to make money from the big ship. Under this drive, naturally some people found ways to buy the big ship.

The same situation also occurs in other towns.

Lao Wu took the opportunity to start a ship rental business. Half of the newly arrived ships are used for self-operation and half for leasing.

In the 1980s, if anyone could raise a big boat, it would be easy to earn 200,000 yuan a year. However, if the fishermen saved money themselves, they might not be able to afford a boat in 10 years. But if they rented it for a price of 100,000 yuan a year, the fishermen could buy their own boat in two years.

Anyone can calculate this account, and the charterers lined up in a long queue and even took the initiative to work at the shipping company in order to rent a new ship as soon as possible.

The only bad thing is that the fishing boats of this Dahua Shipping Company are not allowed to use fine nets, and there are also regulations on the fishing area of ​​each fishing boat - every month, each boat gets fishing once a month. Although it is still very profitable, it always takes two more days to fish offshore.

Someone secretly changed the fine net or sailed offshore to fish at night. But not long after, they were discovered by inspectors on the land and then lost their rental qualifications.

When others took the contract and asked for compulsory execution, no one dared to make a fuss. Moreover, there were people who were gloating and wanted to rent a boat as soon as possible.

In just one March, Lao Wu paid 500,000 yuan in profits. In early April, a new ship joined, and the weekly income increased to 250,000 yuan.

Seeing the numbers on the report, Su Cheng couldn't help but exclaim: "It's like another oil well being opened."

Lao Wu was praised and said with a smile: "If it weren't for protecting fishery resources, this number could have increased by half. Some fishermen drove their own boats and scattered their nets, and the boat would be full in two days..."

"They dig their own graves and wait until there is no fish in the sea, how can they live in the future?" Su Cheng waved his hand and said, "They do theirs, we have our plans. In the future, we will join the convention. Any fishing boat that deals with us will not use the website of the terrible user."

Lao Wu nodded and said, "As you told me, I have built a fishermen's service center to help fishermen apply for their documents, run errands on the road, and contact their children to the school. Be sure to ensure that they have no worries and save time and earn more money than they use the terrible user network."

"Not bad." Su Cheng slapped Lao Wu's shoulder heavily, shaking his palms hurt. His body is also very outstanding among ordinary people, but Lao Wu's body is too strong.

Lao Wu laughed happily, and then remembered and said, "By the way, Lao Liu from Uncle's family wants to come too, look..."

"The sixth brother is still in high school."

"Yes. My uncle's house has many slopes, and it has been difficult for the past two years. I sent 100 yuan to my house last month, and Lao Liu said he didn't want to study anymore."

"Let him continue to study." Su Cheng waved his hand and said, "You tell him like this, if he can get into college, I will support him in school, and I will give him 50 yuan in pocket money every month, so he can use it. Well, all the children of the Xu family are the same. If I can get into college, I will pay for it... Is it really difficult for the uncle's family?"

"It's hard. The eighth old man is still young, so he has to prepare a dowry for his fourth sister."

"Does the fourth sister have a partner? I remember she went to high school too." The people of Jingshan went to the west after their ancestors, and had made money and started school, and had the benefits of studying. As long as the family can make a fuss, they will not let their children drop out of school. Su Cheng was able to go to Peking University thanks to the help of his tribe.

"She went to school with me." Lao Wu said angrily: "We are also talking about pomp in the countryside. The woman's dowry requires 8 quilts, one and a half pounds to 8 pounds, and nothing can be missed. As for our uncle's situation, it will take at least two more years to save it. How dare you negotiate a partner?"

Hearing this, Su Cheng did not hesitate anymore and said, "Please send a telegram to your family, make it clearer, and ask the fourth sister if she is willing to come. If she is willing, come and help me and send it home. If she is unwilling, I will help her get married. The sixth brother must finish school before she can get out. If she fails to get into college, let alone the eighth brother, stay there."

Lao Wu responded and said with a smile: "I'll send a letter. It will be a few days later. The telegram is expensive. However, you have to tell your fourth sister what to do when she is here."

"Just say you are an accountant and settle the accounts. If you don't know, go to your ground to help." Su Cheng said while sending Lao Wu out.

Looking back, he saw the sales director Yan Xuecan pretending to be calm and walked over with a slow step, shouting: "Dr. Su."

Sucheng then stood still.

Yan Xuecan walked a little faster and came to Sucheng and reported: "Dr. Su, the four ships in the customs are well used. They placed another order and wanted four more ships, and the price remained unchanged. Another thing is that when the people at the Tianjin Port saw our ship, they also asked if they could make a dredger for them."

Su Cheng nodded while listening.

The 190 diesel engine-transformed ships are powerful but not fast, so they are suitable for fishing boats and small cargo ships. In comparison, engineering ships such as dredgers are obviously more suitable for their diesel engines.

Su Cheng said in an admiring tone: "Old Yan, it's a good job. I didn't expect the dredger at all. Well, go find Xie Tiange, who bought new equipment and happened to make this order. Then go to other ports. Our domestic ports are now simply poor and have no equipment."

Yan Xuecan, who has always received punishment education, was suddenly inspired and his old face turned red, saying, "Don't worry, I'll go back to them now and go to Tianjin tonight. In addition, I have an idea."

"Um."

"Now the supply of ships in various shipyards is in short supply, but this situation will take two or three years to make a purchase of sales channels by taking advantage of the opportunity to pull orders for each shipyard. When the supply of ships is oversupply in the future, we can get a commission based on the order."

Selling a shipyard with a 190 diesel engine is equivalent to making about 50,000 yuan for Sucheng, which is more than the shipyard, so no one considers making money from orders. However, Yan Xuecan has been selling for many years and is naturally not satisfied with this situation.

Su Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "This way, your department can first make the procedures. The sales department, as the main body, will send the orders collected to the shipyard in the form of OEM production. Within two years, do not draw profits, and then depend on the situation later."

Yan Xuecan was very happy all of a sudden. This was similar to what he thought. Of course, he should praise "Su Dong Yingming and Divine Martial Arts" at this time.

Su Cheng roughly calculated that since he used the 3 million yuan loan to open the ship market, more than 50 diesel engines of the 190 series have been sold, with a profit of 2.5 million. This achievement itself is not impressive, but it greatly reduced the cost of the transformation of Jinan Power Machinery Factory. When the high-power diesel engine is put into production, it is no longer they ask for help, but others come to ask for them.

While Su Cheng touched his chin and was entertaining himself, he saw Xiaopang sneaking through the bottom of the window.

"Huang Ping!" Su Cheng shouted.

When his fat legs shook, he smiled sweetly: "Master, I'll treat you to dinner."

Su Cheng frowned with a chill and asked, "It's great, why should I invite you to dinner?"

"That...my dad is here."

"Um?"

"My father is the director of China Shipbuilding Guijiang Shipbuilding Factory." Seeing that Su Cheng didn't understand, Xiaopang explained carefully: "China Shipbuilding is China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation, formerly called the Sixth Ministry of Machinery, and before it was called the Ninth Industrial Administration..."

His voice became smaller and smaller, as Su Cheng's eyes became brighter and brighter.
